STUDENT ASSISTANT (HIWI) POSITION (40H/MONTH)

GENERATION OF CELL MICROFABRICATION FOR 3D NETWORKS

We are hiring a student assistant (Hiwi) for 4 months (40 hrs/month) for the following project: ''Generation of cell microfabrication for 3D networks''; from January 2023 to April 2023. The overall goal of this project is to use a 3D laser microprinter to generate highly accurate 3D microprinted scaffolds to study 3D cell proliferation and migration in a predefined design.

The student (background: biology/biochemistry, biophysics, and similar disciplines) will work on the following tasks:

Design of CAD files using Inventor AutoDesk (in collaboration with Dr. Mohammadreza Taale or Malin Schmidt);
Mechanical characterization of 3D laser microprinted structures by microindentation using Pavone Optics11 (in collaboration with Tobias Spratte or Dr. Federico Colombo);
Basic biological and biophysical mechanisms underlying cell proliferation, migration and organization in 3D artificial micro-scaffolds (3D cell culture, immunofluorescence staining, live/dead assays, qPCR, confocal and tracking microscopy).

PostDoc and PhD positions

Postdoctoral Researcher and PhD positions available in the 3DMM2O (3D Matter Made to Order) Please find the details here.

Other positions available:

Master's thesis in Biophysics: Live single-cell mass characterization

This one year project aims at designing a new experimental setup to measure the total mass and the dry mass of a single cell simultaneously.
Please contact Prof. Christine Selhuber-Unkel, Dr. Federico Colombo or Dr. Fereydoon Taheri for more details.

Thesis in Mechanobiology: Cell-culture micro-scaffolds for 3D networks

The project aims to develop novel 3D cell-culture micro-scaffolds, which will alter cell attachment and migration along 3D defined paths.
Please contact Prof. Christine Selhuber-Unkel, Dr. Maria Villiou or Dr. Mohammadreza Taale for more details.

If you are interested in joining the group, don't hesitate to contact Prof. Selhuber-Unkel.
